Make TypeScript test reporter optional

[junaiddshaukat]

Summary

Fixes #37181

Makes the Develocity mocha reporter optional in the TypeScript SDK test configuration, allowing npm test to run out-of-the-box after npm install without requiring the @gradle-tech/develocity-agent package.

Problem

The TypeScript SDK test configuration (sdks/typescript/reporterConfig.js) hard-requires @gradle-tech/develocity-agent/mocha-reporter via require.resolve(), but this package is not listed in package.json devDependencies. This causes npm test to fail for new contributors on a fresh clone with: Error: Cannot find module '@gradle-tech/develocity-agent/mocha-reporter'

Solution

• Wrap require.resolve() in a try-catch block to gracefully handle when the module is not available
• Fall back to the default spec reporter when the Develocity reporter cannot be resolved
• The reporter is still used in CI environments where it's installed (for build scans), but local development no longer requires it

Changes

• Modified sdks/typescript/reporterConfig.js to make the Develocity reporter optional

Testing

• ✅ npm test passes locally without the Develocity reporter installed
• ✅ Tests run successfully with the fallback spec reporter
• ✅ No breaking changes (backward compatible - CI environments with the reporter installed will continue to use it)

Summary of Changes

Hello @junaiddshaukat, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request addresses an issue where new contributors to the TypeScript SDK faced npm test failures due to a hard dependency on the @gradle-tech/develocity-agent package, which is not a listed devDependency. By making the Develocity Mocha reporter optional and implementing a fallback to the standard spec reporter, this change significantly improves the out-of-the-box developer experience. It ensures local tests run smoothly without requiring additional setup, while preserving the Develocity reporter's functionality in CI environments.

Highlights

• Optional Develocity Reporter: The Develocity Mocha test reporter is now optional, preventing npm test failures for new contributors who do not have the @gradle-tech/develocity-agent package installed.
• Fallback Reporter: When the Develocity reporter is not available, the test configuration gracefully falls back to using the default spec reporter.
• CI Compatibility: The Develocity reporter will continue to be used in CI environments where it is installed, ensuring build scans are still generated without breaking local development.
